Confused on Keyword density

I'm using Rank Math for my SEO plugin, and while some of my pages are ranking well, I only have around 5-10 keywords per page. My entire site has about 500 keywords, but when I look at competitor sites, they have 5,000+ keywords. How many keywords should I be aiming for per page? And how do search engines detect and rank organic keywords?

Sneaky Link Building - Audit

I'm doing an audit for a new website client, and I noticed a lot of their backlinks are from blogspot where the comments are just direct URL links to the clients website. Is this worth bringing up to the client on our next meeting or just to leave as is? Is this a common strategy? Looks as if the comments are way back from 2018

Similar Content and Google Discovered - Currently Not Indexed. Help!

Hello SEO Community! I created an event discovery and promotion web app and launched in early November. I believe that SEO remains my biggest challenge/opportunity for customer acquisition at the moment, but I wanted to ask specifically if my product will inherently always have pages not indexed because of similar content. Background: I and the businesses I work with can publish a recurring event, which creates 10 different events/pages with the same information except for the event dates. The page title is differentiated because of the dates, and the...

Migrating from Shopify to Woocommerce - same domain, need 301 redirects?

Hi! I'm currently migrating my Shopify store to WooCommerce (same domain). I *don't* have access to the old Shopify backend. The new WooCommerce site is using a standard URL structure, same as it was in Shopify (`/products/product-name`). 1.Will I still need to create 301 redirects? I've heard conflicting information. 2.I'm aiming to preserve SEO as much as possible. Google Search Console shows 5.7K indexed pages, but I can only export 1000 directly. Any advice on handling redirects in this situation? Best tools/plugins? Any AI that can automate the process?...

AI writing tools: useless for long-form content? Or am I missing something?

I’ve spent quite a lot of time learning and testing AI’s capabilities to create decent SEO and marketing content. For that, I’ve tried probably every popular model (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude…) and tool (Jasper, Copyai, Scalenut…) And here are my conclusions and things I’m wondering about: * There’s literally no AI system or tool like those I mentioned that can just go and create a whole article at once, in good quality, even if you give it a detailed structure and all the briefing info you can imagine. What you’ll...

Is it still possible to make money just by running ads on a website?

Hey everyone, A few years ago, I met someone who was making **$10K/month** just by running ads on his website. Now that I have some spare time, I was thinking of trying something similar. However, while going through relevant threads, I’ve noticed that most recommendations focus on affiliate marketing rather than ad revenue. So, I wanted to check—**is this still a viable way to make money, or have things changed with Google?** If it’s still possible, I’d really appreciate any **articles, videos, or resources** that could help me get...

Low DR after 1 year. Is it normal?

Hey everyone, I started my blog about a year ago, and according to Ahrefs, my Domain Rating (DR) is still at 1. I have 18 non-spammy backlinks, and my organic traffic is around 700/month, steadily increasing. I experienced a drop in traffic and keyword rankings after Google's December update, but I'm now recovering. I rank on the first page of Google for some keywords, but not in the first position—sometimes 2nd or lower. Is it normal for my DR to be this low after a year? What can I...

Best SEO tool that I can use

Hey! I am the founder of a relatively new start-up with only a few clients, and for some reason unable to get more clients. Tried using viral reels, audios, etc. as well as have also tried using SEMRUSH, MozBar and SEO Quake, but at one point it requires you to pay for their plans (which is fair ), but as I don't have that many clients on board currently, I want to know from you all if there is any free SEO tool that I can use for now?...

Bing or Google

As the title goes, I have the following dilemma. I have created a hobby website using Wix, and here and there, I am still learning and upgrading it as my skills progress. Lately, I have been practicing my SEO skills and noticed that in Wix Analytics, almost all my organic traffic comes from Bing—around 90%, while Google accounts for about 10%. I have no complaints about organic traffic, no matter where it comes from, but I am wondering why I am getting most of it from Bing, especially since...
